SAVING YOUR PATTERN : Almost There

• For recap, PRESET MANAGER can be found in EDIT MENU

Step 15

8.  Select Patterns from the drop-down menu.

Step 16

There’s our pattern!

9. Just like in custom shapes and brushes, you can save several patterns as a SET, but if you have only one made pattern and feel tired to do another pattern then it is alright to save it as a single pattern

Since we have created one pattern, we will still save it. Click the Save Set Button.

Step 17

The extension file of a pattern is .PAT

• Well done folks! We had just created a Pattern! If you have followed the steps, you can already use it in your designs and background!

Let me show you, how it works!

• To test your pattern, here are the steps:

1. File > New Layer.
2. Select the PAINT BUCKET TOOL and fill the background with BLACK (choose any color you like).

• Since we will use our own made pattern which is ORANGE, I chose black as a background for the visibility of our pattern.

Step 18

3.  While the PAINT BUCKET TOOL is selected, right click the Layer 1 and select “BLENDING OPTION”

Step 19

4. Layer Style Window > Check the Pattern Overlay and double click it.

• When you double click the pattern overlay, it will show you its Properties.
• On Properties, You can see a pattern thumbnail with drop-down arrow.

Step 20

Click that button!

• From the pattern menu, you’ll see the patterns you made (if the patterns are not there, load it first)

Step 21

5. Click OK.

Step 22

Well done! Now you know how to do it! It’s your turn now!

Note: You can use the scale property on the Pattern Overlay Properties, if you want to make your pattern smaller or larger.
